Connection via WIFI
boss’s local WIFI connection is suited for easy connection with local mobile or tablet
devices.
Note: This connection is not for connecting the boss to the internet.
To connect, scan using your device’s WIF for your unique boss device and connect directly.
By default the SSID is “boss-” followed by a 4 digit/character combination.
eg. uboss-xxxx*
Note: the *suffix is always the last 4 digits of the MAC address of the boss.
Password for the WIFI connection is: 12345678
Accessing from a PC might require to follow the advanced SSID settings to enter the WIFI
key instead of a PIN.
Once connected, either scan the QR code on the front of the boss:
or: open a browser and type https://qraccess/boss
Alternatively put https://uboss-****
in the address bar and enter.
(where **** represents the last
4 digits of the mac address)
Example: https://uboss-4756
Login as normal in the boss program with the username and password that was provided
to you.

The following information is intended for the IT professional in order to achieve
connectivity of the boss unit to the local network.
Internet network connection is via standard CAT5/6 ethernet cable.
(The WIFI on the boss family is for local WIFI networking only)
The Field ethernet port is for Bacnet/ Modbus communications.
Network settings are accessed via the “System Administration” pages on the local
machine.
Login using the administrator username and password of 12345678.
IP address settings are found via the Network config (1) link and the settings icon (2) for
the LAN connection.

Connecting boss micro to the Internet

By default the LAN address setup is selected for DHCP, so if the network is already
connected, a static IP may already be assigned to the local network. eg.192.168.0.100
(we will use this IP address as the example in the following descriptions ).
To check local access to the boss once connected it can be accessed by using the
following link in an internet browser window.
For example: https://192.168.0.100/boss
If you want to be able access the boss unit remotely over the internet then a static
IP address from the Internet Service Provider (ISP) is required and port forwarding rules
applied to the router to achieve this.
The boss needs the following ports for functionality :
Port 443 (access for the boss main page via browser)
Port 8443 (optional for shell access)
These ports are fixed and cannot be changed.
Once the port forwarding rules have been carried out in the router you should be able to
access the boss remotely by replacing the internal IP of the link above, with the external
IP in the address bar
example: if the router external static IP address is 200.100.50.25 then the link will
become: https://200.100.50.25/boss
For added security the PING feature is deactivated by default in the “Security services”
Section. Please ensure the Firewall is reactivated to security integrity
Please note:
The above information is given as general information to help IT professionals achieve
the clients request for connectivity to LAN.
Carel Australia is unable to provide further guidance on how to set up the TCP/IP
network, this is the job of the IT personnel.
